    It lacks of a complete magic, on their songs. Most of them got a same rythm and comparing to 1989´s diverse kinds of rythms, these one has failed to impressionate many of us.

    Absolutely appalling. There are a couple 'almost-good' songs here, but they are few and far between. The album gets really tiring fast.

    Lots of collaboration here without much originality. Swift gets writing credits for every song but in actuality Martin and Shellback wrote 2/3 of the album.

The lyrics are narcicistic and jeuvenile. Gorgeous is about her falling for a hot guy. Getaway car sounds like 1989's "Out of the Woods", no Martin/Shellback so we're getting full Swift and it isn't that good. Glad I'm not wasting money on this one.… Expand

    Not good as 1989. The melodies are not catchy and are forgettable. Experiments in some of the tracks are successful while others make no sense. The lyrical content doesn't progress. A little bit disappointed. She is better at country and synth-pop.

    Swift's new album does not prove lyrical genius on the likes of other artists, and is far from what we could've expected, but the style she has taken isn't for everybody either, though as an album which was expected highly of as we approach the last remaining weeks of the year.

    Taylor Swift has proven once again why she's a worldwide superstar, a class A songwriter and critically-acclaimed singer. Her vocals, both main and background are powerful and full of emotions that certain songs require and I could not have asked a better album by her.

    She should've stuck to country music. While the album isn't bad per se, quality took a hit from her previous work. 1989 was a brilliant pop record and "reputation" comes across as a childish album. From a girl who's experiencing her 20s, we shouldn't be hearing songs like Ready for It.

E reputation é a prova clara de como isso é verídico.
    Em reputation vemos claramente como Swift deixou se levar pelo rancor e pela mágoa encrustados em seu interior, para produzir não mais uma de suas obras-primas como o Speak Now ou o 1989, mas para provar ao mundo quão malvada ela poderia ser (e quão infantil também).
    O álbum em si ronda toda a polêmica criada a partir do episódio West-Kardashian, que poderia ter sido superado de forma mais eloquente e menos trágica para a discografia de Swift, como assim ela fez em Innocent no Speak Now, dedicada a Kanye.
    Em reputation vemos a tentativa fracassada de Swift convencer a si mesma e ao mundo de que tem seus inimigos em suas mãos, não importando-se com as reviravoltas que a vida dá, onde um dia é o dia da caça e outro é o do caçador. A Taylor caçadora tenta convencer também que após reputation ela não mais se debruçará sobre sua caça como outrora. Engano próprio e daqueles que assim acreditam.
    A máquina de produção lírica de Swift sempre foi baseada no seu processo de vitimizar-se, ao invés de bater de frente com seus problemas e superá-los de uma forma adulta e como uma mulher - não uma criança - superaria.
    Ao contrário de seus colegas da música pop, como Adele por exemplo, Taylor continua com a mania de passar-se pela menina coitadinha oprimida pelo ex que a abandonou. Ao contrário de Adkins, que nunca se fez de vítima, mas sempre mostrou que há 2 lados numa única história, Swift quer transparecer que seu lado, sua versão e sua história são as únicas autênticas e verdadeiras em tudo.
    Por fim, há algumas músicas que valem a pena nos atentarmos à ouvir, como So It Goes e Don't Blame Me, verdadeiros magnum-opus em meio a tantas faixas genéricas e sem profundidade alguma. Músicas tão profundas, que nos inquietam a saber se não teriam algum "toque" mágico de sua grande amiga Ella (Lorde) no meio. Retirando isso, o disco mostra-se coeso em apenas duas coisas: transparecer uma Taylor forte e madura que não existe e cantar sobre como Taylor é vítima em toda a polêmica que envolve sua carreira desde o lançamento de seu magnum-opus, o 1989. Nos dois sentidos, Swift fracassa, restando-lhe apenas que as pessoas compreendam seu conto de fadas e vejam ali uma realidade inexistente.    … Expand

One of the many things that draw me closer to Taylor's music was her ability to create narratives with her songs, even when she made the transition to pop with 1989. With reputation, you can only see that on the great "Getaway Car", one of the few songs that production and lyrics got it right. The other one is "I Did Something Bad", which is everything that "Look What You Made Me Do" aspired to be. It has the right jabs in the right way (instead of going for the cringe way with "I don't like your tilted stage/No I don't like you"). For the rest of it, there's always something lacking, or too much of something. The lyrics are usually lacking, with a overuse of cringe-worthy lyrics that came straight out of the internet in what felt like an artificial try to sound "hype". I can't connect to her songs nor to the lover who she claims to be so great because he doesn't read gossip tabloids. For the first time in her career, the downsides of a record overshadowed the highs of it.… Expand

    This wasn't as bad as I was expecting. As someone that was never into Taylor Swift, not when she became big making country pop tunes, and not when she reinvented herself and critics started calling her music "good" during the 1989-era (1989 was an okay album at best, but it did not deserve AotY at the Grammys), I had little to really gain from reputation.

It's an album that is about how the media views her and, at least to her, villifies her. Now while I will give Taylor this and find a lot of the gossip and criticism to be overblown, I do not really care about her life nor her epically messing up her image when Kim Kardasian shared that one video of Tay approving of Kanye's Famous line about her. Listening to this album without any context, it just raises question as to who is the machine and why is she raging against it. And even with context of the media and how it painted her, it doesn't really make a lot of sense, considering she's the one that lost the good girl narrative and her attempts at being the bad guy is just laughable. Look at What You Made Me Do is a prime example of this where I don't buy that she's taking the role of the villain, and her deflecting blame just does not work. It's much the same with other songs like I Did Something Bad and This Is Why We Can't Have Nice Things, but the big issue with this album is that this theme of media representation is unbalanced, as 40% of it is about the media and 60% of it is romance songs about some guy and how she's head over heels for him and it's just so uninteresting. And it's even worse when you add context to these love songs because knowing her history of dating men and writing breakup songs afterwords, I don't buy songs like King of My Heart, Gorgeous, and So It Goes... that are about "true love." I'll buy it when I see it, but right now I just don't! Then there is the production, which isn't bad honestly. Much like 1989, reputation is another pop album from Tay that has her going in more electronic sounds, but unlike the 80s synthpop on her last album, this album moves towards electropop. And it's...a mixed bag. With songs like Look What You Made Me Do, Ready for It?, and End Game (which has Ed Sheeran and Future of all people dropping lines here), Tay has anthemic electropop tunes, I'll give her that, but she feels super out of place behind these trap and aggressive sounds, or they sound extremely dated when they turn into leftover dubstep wubs and drops that Skrillex wouldn't even use (the worse offender of that being I Did Something Bad). And speaking of trap, there are gentle songs that are more atmospheric and minimal, somehting Lorde would use during the Pure Heroine-era of her career, but with those harsh trap elements thrown on, it ruins songs like Call It What You Want and Gorgeous. There are a few songs I do kind of like. Delicate is a relaxing tropical house type song that's very bubbly (although it reminds me of a leftover beat from Troye Sivan's Blue Neighbourhood album), Getaway Car would fit very well on 1989, both in terms of the sound and lyrical theme, but that's a compliment, Dancing With Our Hands Tied is a solid EDM and dance-pop tune with an energetic kick-drum rhythm, and New Year's Day is a solid piano ballad and a solid closer at that. But honestly this doesn't win me over as a Swiftie. At least with 1989 it had her going in a mature direction and sees her growing up (and I don't mean mature like the song Dress I did NOT want a sex song from Tay), but with reputation I just see this as a regression than progression. If I at least bought what she was singing about or have me understand where she is coming from, I would be more forgiving than I already am.… Expand

Taylor Swift brought us an obnoxious album that is so boring to listen until the end; it is painful stop to listen all the 15 tracks (at least 12 tracks of it). "Reputation" was a worst attempt to show "angry", overcoming and criticism about stuffs that have been injuring Mrs. Taylor through these times, in addition to the lack of smartness in many parts of the lyrics through the record. And many of the tracks it's disposable, unfortunately, Taylor let her heartbreak take many of the lyrics that turned her appointments into an amount of ****

    A not good track is "…Ready for It?" a noisy BAD ballad, super nasty and the repetition of "Let the games begin" uncountable times cause a feeling of irritability. "End Game", Taylor tried to gather Wine and Water (Ed Sheeran & Future). This environment between RAP and POP MUSIC, aesthetic, do not convince anybody that some music can be good/excellent just with this "searching for something new", or cool (OMG look at me mixing oil and water), it is tasteless. I think if Taylor had made a track with Ed and another one with Future, it will be less unpleasant to listen. However, Ed Sheeran's vocals are the only good thing in this track.

    Even though this album can be a little bit god-awful, I should highlight "Look What You Made Me Do" with Taylor Swift singing (with a sexy voice [trying to be sexy or not, but causing this reaction]) softly and angrily at the same time. This music has one of the best instrumentals of the whole record, besides of the iconic part when she sings: "I'm sorry; the old Taylor can't come to the phone right now" "Why? "Oh, cause she's dead". In addition to "Don't Blame Me" that "OMG HIT ME HARDER WITH YOUR POTENTIAL GURL", and then for me, is the only track that I loved so far in "Reputation" that I could recommend for you guys to listen. This track exudes a sort of passion that is so strong than her persona to bear with it (comparing this relationship with a drugs' addiction), and it is beautiful, intense and lovely..

    Reputation is really a change in Taylor's music style. While she does leave the "bubblegum" pop field, she tries to expand her sound in more urban, RnB and Trap sounds.

If someone else released this album, it would have been good. But in Taylor's standards, it's just mediocre.
